﻿Our Trainers, Volunteers & supporters﻿

Trainers with MSSDS are students and graduates of the Cloverfield Specialist Trainer Program. This program was designed by Heather A. Logan to develop individuals qualified to train service dogs using modern, positive, scientifically-based methods of training. Supporters are those who are interested in helping our cause through fundraising, dog-sitting and making facilities available for training.

Without volunteers, training dogs and fundraising efforts would not be possible. Here is a list, in no particular order, of our trainers, supporters and volunteers:

Words From Our Past President:"I believe it is an honour to be given the opportunity to pass my knowledge and experience on to students. I have set very high goals for myself to keep at the forefront of my field in animal behaviour and animal training. I strive to do better as I learn better, in teaching students, and in the care and training of animals. The Principles of Learning set out by Pavlov and B.F. Skinner in the late 1930s are the backbone of my teaching philosophy. Behaviour that is rewarded will be repeated; behaviour that is ignored or punished will fade."- Heather A. Logan December 2, 2018
